Our take on the Nikon D600 with 3.5X Zoom Lensby Crutchfield's Woody Sherman

Is there anything that can rival that arresting full-frame look? Something about the way a big sensor interacts with well-tuned, big aperture optics makes you stop and look at every image that's generated. The Nikon D600 combines the wonderful creative options of this pairing with an attractive price point. From the moment we saw all the value this product offers, we knew we were going to have a challenge keeping this bad boy in stock.

It's got the look

Is there anything that can rival that arresting full-frame look? Something about the way a big sensor interacts with well-tuned, big aperture optics makes you stop and look at every image that's generated. The Nikon D600 combines the wonderful creative options of this pairing with an attractive price point. From the moment we saw all the value this product offers, we knew we were going to have a challenge keeping this bad boy in stock.

The Nikon D600 full-frame DSLR with on-board flash deployed

And the envelope goes to...

Let's start with an exciting feature video shooters will appreciate. Building on the success of this camera's big brother, the D800, Nikon chose to once again offer an uncompressed HDMI output on the D600. This gives you the ability to route a pristine broadcast-quality signal to an external recording device or to a high-end critical evaluation monitor. Add the on-board headphone output, audio metering, and external microphone in jack, and you're well on the way to directing your next film festival short.

Details we can appreciate

At 24.3-megapixels, you'll have plenty of definition for even your most demanding subjects, and with a fast 5.5 frames per second continuous shooting rate at full resolution, you won't miss the perfect moment either. The D600 has twin SD/SDHC/SDXC memory card bays, so you'll be able to keep on shooting with media that's easy to find. And with the high-resolution, 3.2-inch LCD display, you'll be able to compose those shots with ease, especially with the incorporated electronic level keeping everything well-aligned.

Making the most of the things you have

You'll have more "keepers" as well, because the 39-area autofocus system will lock you in sync with your moving subject, even in low light. And while this camera is optimized for full-frame Nikkor lenses, if you've had an APS-C sensor camera in the past, this camera is compatible with Nikon's DX format lenses as well — using a special crop mode to keep your investment useful. It also has an in-body autofocus motor, so it can use older, non-AF-S lenses.

It's an airwave traveler

One of the exciting options available for this model is Wi-Fi® camera control and mobile sharing, made possible by the optional WU-1b wireless mobile adapter. Apps are available for your Android™ or Apple® smartphone or tablet. You can share your photos with any compatible Wi-Fi device. Essentially, this allows you to control your camera's shutter from a distance while you view what the camera is seeing, and share those files later. Not only is it awfully handy when you want to be in the picture, it's a big time saver when it's time to get your files in a safe place for storage.

Versatile glass

This camera includes the versatile AF-S Nikkor 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5G ED VR zoom lens. With a 3.6X zoom range, it's a multipurpose tool that's sure to make it one of the favorites in your camera bag. This lens will take you from tight interiors and group shots, through great portraits and nicely isolated interview head shots, all with a quick tweak of the zoom control.

Take a look at some of the bullets below. Now take a look at the price above. See if you don't agree that this is one of the best values the photography world has seen in a while, feature for feature. To make sure you get the full impact, come back and look at the "details" tab above when we've had a chance to get one in our labs to give it the real shakedown. Quite frankly, we can't wait. You probably shouldn't either.

Nikon D600 with 3.5X Zoom Lens Reviews

Spots and more spots

Once again Nikon abandons their customers. The announcement of the D610 is Nikons way of saying - yes we know there is a problem with the shutter assembly on the D600 and no we are not going to support those that purchased it. Do not buy this camera.

Nikon D600 package

Bought this for my son who is in his second year, working on his bachelors of fine arts in digital photography. He moved up from the D90 (which he really liked) and is amazed at the difference in the full-frame camera. I originally purchased from Dell and had problems (way too many problems) and returned it and bought from Crutchfield. Faster shipping, MUCH better customer service, AND a better price overall. This is a camera that will last through college and into career. It has only been a month so the review is a bit scarce, but if the opportunity presents itself, in 6 months I would like to update.

Pros:Full frame, more focus points, more options

Cons:older lenses not made for full frame will crop. Not a big deal as the photographer should know their gear, but worth mentioning.

Great camera!

Great pictures, low noise at high ISOs. I moved up from a Nikon D80 so this a huge improvement in picture quality for me. Pictures are very clear. Movie mode works very well, you can even capture any frame and save it as a photo. Unfortunately, my camera came with a problem: the autofocus did not work, except in Live View (many features though do not work with Live View). For that matter, the flash did not work well, either, blasting at full strength; I am guessing that this is related to the lack of focus (camera-to-subject distance); however, the noise was so low at low light that I was able to get by without the flash for most shots. I was stuck with this situation for two weeks as I had to leave overseas on vacation, but the pictures I took were absolutely awesome. The camera has great features, such as bracketing, HDR, and multi-exposure. Once I get a replacement camera I will be able to fully test this camera.

nikon d600 with 24-85mm G lens

this is really such a great camera. i have this camera for a couple of weeks and still learning of it's function, a little too complicated for me 'coz i am a begginer and this is my first dslr full frame camera, but it's a challenge learning the features of this amazing camera, well worth the price....the kit lens that comes with it is a sharp lens..24-85mm G.not a super sharp but it's worth having one. i have not seen an oil or dust issue in the sensor yet, i've taken almost 2000 shots and sensor still clean,have not seen a spot on any pics, not way behind like the d800's and 5d mark iii.

Pros:a great cheap full frame camera, better than those dx cameras.

Cons:you cannot change the aperture while shooting video, the grip is not exactly fit on my hands, the grip is a little small.

A Must Have

Kenneth from Silsbee, TX on 9/28/2012

I Love This Camera, NO DOUGHT ABOUT IT! But I do not recomend it for for Beginners if you moving from point and shoot. I would recomend a lower end camera such as D3200, D90, D5100 and so on, cause this is a somewhat complicated Camera to use as there many more Menu items to go thru then lower Caliber Cameras. I myself started on a Canon AE-1 20 plus years ago and have slowly worked my way up, have had Nikon D40, D60, D90, Pentax ist DL, Canon Rebel XSI and so on. and all those were APS-C Sensor or Crop Sensor, and the D600 is my 1st Full Frame or 35mm Frame in many years, and I looking forward to many years with it.

Pros:Not to Heavy,
Better Grip then D7000, which I thought was to small for a Prosumer Camera

Product Research

Recording Features

Overview: The D600 is Nikon's new full-frame high resolution
DSLR, but in a slightly smaller package than the D800 or D4. This D600 package includes the
camera body with a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery
pack and battery charger, and the AF-S NIKKOR 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5G ED VR
high-quality standard zoom lens.

Image Sensor: The D600 is equipped with the Nikon FX-format,
35.9 x 24.0mm CMOS image sensor with 24.7 million total pixels
(and 24.3 million effective pixels). The Nikon FX format enables photographers
to take advantage of the familiar perspective characteristics of 35mm film
photography. You can choose to shoot in the FX format, or switch to DX format.

Magnesium Alloy Body: The D600 features rugged, durable and lightweight magnesium alloy for the
top and rear frames, to achieve better durability and lighter weight. Extensive
weather sealing gives the D600 dust- and moisture-proof protection, allowing you
to work in harsh environments.

Dual Media Slots: The D600 has dual slots that can
accommodate SD, SDHC, and SDXC Memory cards, including UHS-1 cards for faster
data transfer. Class 6 or higher write speeds are recommended for movie recording. No memory card
is supplied with the camera. When two cards are used, you can choose the role
played by the card in slot 2:

Overflow: Card in Slot 2 is used only when the card in Slot 1 is
full.

Backup: Each picture is recorded onto cards in both slots
simultaneously.

RAW/JPEG: NEF/RAW images are recorded only to the card in Slot 1
while JPEG images are recorded only to the card in Slot 2.

Memory Buffer:The camera is
equipped with a memory buffer for temporary storage, allowing shooting to
continue while photographs are being saved to the memory card. Up to 100
photographs can be taken in succession.

LCD Monitor: The Nikon D600 features 3.2-inch, 921,000-dot (VGA), color TFT LCD monitor
with a 170° wide viewing angle and 100%
frame coverage. The monitor has adjustable brightness control using an ambient
brightness sensor. The D600 features a Live View that lets you use the monitor in place of
the camera's viewfinder to confirm your subject and composition while shooting.

Optical Viewfinder: In addition to the LCD monitor, the
D600
has an eye-level pentaprism single-lens reflex viewfinder with approximately
100% frame coverage in FX format (97% in DX format). It has a diopter adjustment
knob so you can set the viewfinder to your personal eyesight (with or without
eyeglasses). The bright and sharp viewfinder makes focusing in low-light
situations possible. The viewfinder offers approximately 0.7x magnification. The viewfinder
uses a Type-B BriteView Clear Matte Mark VIII screen with superimposed AF
brackets and on-demand grid lines for clear and accurate focusing of your subject.
The camera comes with the DK-5 eyepiece cover to prevent light from entering the
viewfinder when shooting self portraits on a tripod.

Still Image Size/Quality: The D600 records still images in JPEG and NEF* (RAW) formats. It can also
record in both NEF (RAW) + JPEG formats simultaneously. JPEG images can set to
fine (1:4 compression), normal (1:8), or basic (1:16) image quality. Depending
upon the selected format (image area), you can choose from the following image
sizes:

* RAW data from the image sensor is saved directly to
the memory card in Nikon Electronic Format (NEF). Once transferred to
a computer, NEF (RAW) images can only be viewed using compatible
software such as the supplied ViewNX2 software.

Movies: The camera can record broadcast-quality movies in MOV format with
MPEG-4/H.264 advanced video coding and Linear PCM audio. Audio is recorded using
the built-in monaural microphone, or an external stereo microphone. Image
quality can be set to High or Normal. The maximum length of movies are up to 29
min 59 sec (20 minutes for High Quality movies). The available movie options include:

39-Point Autofocus System: The D600 is equipped with the Nikon Multi-CAM
4800 autofocus sensor module with 39 focus points, including 9 cross-type
sensors. The center 33 points are available at apertures slower than f/5.6
and faster than f/8 while the center 7 focus points are available at f/8.

AF-Area Modes: The
D600 offers a
choice of four focus area modes that together cover a wide area of
the frame. The AF-area mode determines how the focus area is selected and what
happens if the subject moves out of the selected focus area while the camera is
still focusing. You can choose one of the following AF-area modes:

Single-Point AF: The camera will focus on the subject
in the selected focus point only.

Dynamic Area AF:
The camera offers a choice of three different size areas to match the movement of the
subject, using groups of 9, 21 or all 39 focus points.

3D-Tracking: In AF-C focus mode, the camera will track subjects
that leave the selected focus point and select new focus points as required.

Auto Area AF: The camera automatically detects
subject and selects focus point. If a face is detected, the camera will give
priority to the portrait subject.

Focus Modes: You can choose from the following focus modes:

Single-servo Autofocus (AF-S): camera focuses
automatically when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. The focus
remains locked while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. The
picture will only be taken when the in-focus indicator is displayed.
Recommended for stationary subjects.

Continuous-servo Autofocus (AF-C): camera focuses
continuously while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.
Photographs can be taken whether or not the camera is in focus. Recommended
for moving subjects.

Manual (MF): focus must be adjusted manually using the
lens focusing ring

Predictive Focus Tracking: In continuous-servo AF, the
camera will initiate predictive focus tracking if the subject moves toward or
away from the camera while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway or the
AF-ON button is pressed. This allows the camera to track focus while attempting
to predict where the subject will be when the shutter is released.

Focus Lock: Focus Lock can be used to change the composition
after focusing, making it possible to focus on a subject that will not be in a
focus area in the final composition.

Electronic Range Finder: If the connected lens has a maximum
aperture of f/5.6 or faster, the camera's Electronic Range Finder can be
used to confirm whether or not your subject in the selected focus point is in
focus (the focus point can be selected from any of the 39 focus points).

AF Assist Illuminator: The
built-in AF assist illuminator enables the camera to focus even when the subject
is poorly lit. The illuminator has a range of approximately 1'-8" to 9'-10".

Release Modes: The release
mode determines how the camera takes photographs. You can choose from the
following shooting modes:

Single Frame: camera takes
one photograph each time the shutter-release button is pressed

Continuous Low Speed: while shutter-release button is
held down, the camera records at 1-5 frames per second.

Continuous High Speed: while the shutter-release button is held
down, the camera records up to 5.5 frames per second.

Quiet Shutter-Release: during single frame shooting,
noise is reduced by disabling the beeps and minimizing the sound produced
when the mirror drops back into place.

Self-Timer: use self-timer for self-portraits or to reduce
blurring caused by camera shake; you can set the self-timer to 2, 5, 10 or
20 seconds

Remote Control: shutter is controlled using the
shutter-release button on the optional
ML-L3 remote control

Mirror Up: choose this mode to minimize camera shake in telephoto
or close-up photography or in other situations in which the slightest camera
movement can result in blurred photographs

Interval Timer Photography: The D600 is equipped to take
photographs automatically at preset intervals. Shooting will begin about 3
seconds after the interval is set or you can set a start time. You can
select the number of intervals (up to 999), and the number of shots taken per interval
(up to 9).

Exposure Modes: The Exposure Modes determine how the camera sets
shutter speed and aperture when adjusting exposure. You can choose from the
following Exposure Modes.

Programmed Auto (P): camera sets shutter speed and aperture for
optimal exposure according to a built-in program; recommended for snapshots
and other situations in which there is little time to adjust camera settings

Shutter-Priority Auto (S): user chooses shutter speed while camera sets aperture for best results;
use to freeze or blur motion. The shutter speed can be set from 30 to 1/4000
seconds.

Aperture-Priority Auto (A):
user chooses aperture while camera sets shutter speed for best results; use
to blur background for portraits or bring both foreground and background into
focus for landscape shots

Manual (M): user controls
both shutter speed and aperture for complete control over exposure

User Settings: The Mode Dial has two positions, U1 and U2,
for assigning frequently-used settings. Settings can be saved in the following:
flexible program (mode P), shutter speed (modes S and M), aperture (modes A and
M), exposure and flash compensation, flash mode, focus point, metering,
autofocus and AF-area modes, bracketing, and settings in the shooting and custom
settings menus.

Long Time-Exposures: When Bulb shooting is selected, the shutter will remain open while the shutter-release
button is held down. Bulb shooting is used for long time-exposure photographs of moving
lights, the stars, night scenery, or fireworks. An optional tripod and
optional remote cord (MC-DC2) are recommended to prevent blur.

Exposure Compensation:You can alter the exposure from the value suggested by the camera, making
pictures brighter or darker. You can adjust the exposure from -5.0 to +5.0 EV in
steps of 1/3 EV.

Metering: The D600 utilizes through-the-lens (TTL) metering
using the camera's 2,016-pixel RGB sensor. You can choose one of the following
metering methods:

3D Color Matrix II: If using a type G or D lens, you
can utilize 3D Color Matrix Metering II (or Color Matrix Metering II with
other CPU lenses). The camera meters a wide area of the frame and sets exposure according to distribution of
brightness, color, distance, and composition for natural results

Center-weighted:
The
camera meters the entire frame but assigns greatest weight (75%) to the area in
the center of the frame. The diameter of the circle can be set to 8, 15,
or 20mm, or weighting can be based on the average of the entire frame.
(Non-CPU lenses use a 12mm circle or average of entire frame.)

Spot: The camera
meters inside a 4mm diameter circle (approximately 1.5% of frame). The circle is centered on
the selected focus
area, making it possible to meter off-center subjects.

Multiple Exposure: This
feature records a series of two or three exposures in a single photograph.
Multiple exposures can be recorded at any image quality setting, and produce
results with colors noticeably better than photographs combined in an imaging
application because they make use of RAW data from the camera image sensor.

White Balance: White balance ensures that colors are
unaffected by the color of the light source. You can choose one of the following
white balance options:

Color Temperature: Choose a color temperature from a list of
values (2500K-10000K)

Preset Manual: manually set the white balance using the
subject, light source, or existing photograph in the memory card as
reference

Bracketing (P, S, A, & M modes): Bracketing automatically varies exposure, flash
level, Active D-Lighting (ADL), or white balance slightly with each shot,
"bracketing" the current value. You can set the increment used
and the number of shots.
Bracketing can be combined with continuous shooting or the self timer modes.

ISO Sensitivity: ISO Sensitivity is the digital equivalent
of film speed. You can set the ISO Sensitivity to Auto or Manual. You can
manually select settings of ISO 100 to ISO 6400 in steps of 1/3 EV or 1/2 EV. For special
occasions, expanded settings of Lo 0.3 (equivalent to ISO 80), Lo 1 (50), Hi 0.3 (8000) and
Hi 2 (25600) are available.

Preset Picture Controls: The camera offers six preset Nikon Picture
Controls. You can choose a Picture Control according to the subject or type of
scene:

Standard: standard processing for balanced results; recommended
for most situations

Neutral: minimal processing for natural results; recommended for
photographs that will later be extensively processed or retouched

Vivid: pictures are enhanced for a vivid, photo-print effect;
recommended for photos that emphasize primary colors

Monochrome: takes monochrome photographs

Portrait: process portrait for skin with natural
texture and a rounded feel

Landscape: produces vibrant landscapes and cityscapes

Picture Control Settings: The Preset Picture Controls listed
above can be modified to suit a particular scene or your creative content. The
following manual adjustments can be made:

Quick Adjust: allows you to reduce or
exaggerate the effect of the selected Picture Control Preset from -2 to +2

Sharpening: controls the sharpness of
outlines from 0 to 9; you can also select Auto which adjust the sharpness
automatically according to the scene

Contrast: adjust contrast automatically
according to the type of scene or chose from values between -3 to +3 to
increase or decrease the contrast of your subject

Brightness: reduce or enhanced brightness
level from -1 to +1; this does not affect exposure

Saturation (for non-monochrome): automatically adjust saturation
according to the type of scene or choose from values between -3 to +3 to
lower or increase your subject's saturation

Color Space: The color
space determines the gamut of colors available for color reproduction. You can select either
sRGB for photos that will be printed or used "as is" with no further
modification, or Adobe RGB for images that will be extensively processed or
retouched after leaving the camera.

Built-In Speedlight: The D600 has a pop-up flash that
provides coverage for the angle of view of a 24mm lens (or 16mm lens
in DX format). The available flash modes vary with the shooting mode. The following flash modes are supported:

Auto Flash: When lighting is poor or subject is
backlit, the flash pops up automatically when the shutter-release button is
pressed halfway, and fires as required.

Red-Eye Reduction: The red-eye reduction lamp lights
for approximately one second before the flash fires to reduce the red-eye effect.

Slow Sync: Flash is combined with shutter speeds as slow as 30 seconds to capture both
subject and background at night or under dim light. (Tripod recommended)

Rear-Curtain Sync: The flash fires just
before the shutter closes, creating effect of stream of light following
moving subjects. In programmed auto and aperture-priority auto, slow
rear-curtain sync is used to capture both subject and background. (Tripod
recommended)

Flash Compensation: Flash compensation is used to alter
flash output from -3 EV to +1EV in increments of 1/3 EV to change the brightness
of the main subject relative to the background. Flash output can be increased to
make the main subject appear brighter or reduced to prevent unwanted highlights
or reflections.

FV Lock: This feature is used to lock the flash output, allowing
photographs to be recomposed without changing the flash level and ensuring that
the flash output is appropriate to the subject even when the subject is not
positioned in the center of the frame. The Flash output is adjusted
automatically for any changes in ISO sensitivity and aperture.

Built-in CPU: The lens has a built-in CPU which allows it to
communicate with the camera body for focus and exposure functions. A set of CPU
contacts is located on the lens mount for interfacing with the camera body.

Vibration Reduction (VR II): Vibration reduction minimizes the
effects of camera shake allowing you to shoot handheld at as many as 4 shutter speed
stops slower than would otherwise be possible, assuring dramatically sharper images.
VR II also includes tripod detection, which automatically recognizes when the
camera is mounted to a tripod, and delivers a specialized VR correction that is
ideal for HD video recording. You can turn vibration reduction on or off with the switch on the side of the lens.

Aperture: Because there is no aperture ring on this lens, the
aperture must be set on the camera.

Diaphragm: The lens is equipped with a fully-automatic, 7-blade
diaphragm that produces a nearly circular aperture. Out-of-focus images in front of
or behind the subject are rendered as pleasing blurs.

Lens Hood: The lens includes the HB-63 lens hood to protect
the lens and block stray light that would otherwise cause flare or ghosting. The
lens hood can be reversed and mounted on the lens when not in use. When
installed, the lens hood adds approximately 2" to the overall length of the
lens.

Lens Warranty: Nikon offers a 1-year parts and labor warranty
on this lens. An additional 4-year Extended Service Coverage is available at no
charge if you register the product with Nikon within 10 days of purchase.

Optional Accessories

Speedlights: The Nikon D600 supports the Nikon Creative
Lighting System (CLS), and can be used with CLS-compatible flash units. Optional
flash units, such as the
SB-400,
SB-700, and
SB-910, can be attached directly to the camera accessory shoe.

shutter, select a focus point, and shoot in Time mode. The WU-1b is compatible
with devices using Android OS 2.3 or later (smartphones), Android 3.0 or later (tablets), and iOS version 6.0 or later (iPhone and iPad). The Wireless Mobile Utility app (available from Google Play and iTunes online store) must be installed on the smart device before it can be used with the camera.

ML-L3: The
ML-L3 Infrared Wireless Remote Control allows you to trigger the camera's
shutter remotely when using slower shutter speeds to prevent camera movement. It
offers immediate release mode and two second delay mode, and has an operating
range of approximately 16 feet.

MC-DC2 Wired Remote Control: The
MC-DC2 Wired Remote Control is designed to wirelessly control the
shutter-button of the camera. It features a 41" cord terminated by a proprietary
connector which plugs into the camera's accessory terminal. The shutter-release
button can be locked in the full-pressed position by sliding the lock to the
"Hold" position.

ME-1 Stereo Microphone: The
ME-1 can record stereo sound while shooting movies. Audio recorded with the
